The "Wrapping Detainees" organization has launched an emergency fundraising campaign to finance lawsuits against police officers and commanders in the Israel Police. The campaign claims the police paid millions of shekels to protesters. The police reject the claims, calling them based on incorrect data, and accuse the organization of slandering the force and inciting against its members.

The "Wrapping Detainees" organization, which provides legal assistance to protesters arrested during demonstrations, has launched an emergency fundraising campaign to continue its operations and finance lawsuits against police officers and commanders in the Israel Police. The campaign claims the police have already paid "millions of shekels" to protesters due to "criminal and illegal" conduct. The organization uses imagery of "cleaning up" the police and calls on the public to donate, warning that the organization is at risk of closure. The police reject the claims, stating that the campaign is based on incorrect data, slanders an entire organization, and incites against its members. The police clarify that each legal proceeding is examined according to its circumstances, and that they are working with the prosecution to provide legal support to officers.
